Ordered Monday of this week and they came yesterday afternoon.

Ordered from American Muscle - Anthracite 20x8.5 deep dish with Nitto 555 255x35x20's, Mounted & balanced.

Had them direct shipped to my Goodyear store where they mounted them up and checked the alignment. No alignment was needed, and all I had to do was tip the tech. and be on my way.

Ride is good, 555's are quite and I can fell the improvement in handling over the stock oem tires.

I was concerned about the fitment, but as you can see it works well.

How is the weight? I am scared of the added weight slowing me down, just on 18's let alone 20's.

07gtfolife - That was my first question, what's the weight. They said 22 lbs and the total weight that was on the each UPS box was 55lbs. So, 55-22=32 lbs for each 255x35x20 Nitto.
I think the std premium rim weighs 25-26 lbs ? Anyway the steering is percise and the car handles great in dry and in the rain.

Thanks, Dewman

Tire pressure??

They shipped the tires with 39-40 lb tire pressure. I'm used to 32-35lb but these are 20's.

I've searched around the Internet and I couldn't locate a specific tire pressure for Nitto 255x35x20's.

Are any of you running this tire size and what tire pressure do you have?
Thanks, Dewman.
